Really?

My friend, who shall remain nameless, is a first year teacher at a local school. She did something the other day from the list of top 5 things NOT to do.

Profes50


In her 3rd grade music class she has a little guy who cannot use his right arm or leg. My friend, in an effort to include him in the class' daily activities, asked this little guy to help her pass out the new books. As soon as she made the request and he began making his way to the front she realized she had made a big mistake that she could not back out of. Is she supposed to say "Never-mind, let's have someone who can use both his arms help"? Uh, No. Instead, she asked another student to help the poor guy take one book at a time to the kids. As if that wasn't enough of a snafu, she then tried to recover by asking him to help with "something he COULD do"... play pat-a-cake! Really!? Really friend!?
